PACKAGE CONTENTS B C D A IL2322 IL2320 IL2319 DESCRIPTION A B C IL2306 D Pump Adapters 2” Slip Union Adapters 1.5” Slip Union Couplings QUANTITY 1 2 2 2 SAFETY INFORMATION Basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following. Failure to follow instructions can cause severe injury and/or death. This is the safety-alert symbol.
To Reduce the risk of Entrapment Hazards: • • • • • • • • When outlets are small enough to be blocked by a person, a minimum of two functioning suction outlets per pump must be installed. Suction outlets in the same plane (i.e. floor or wall), must be installed a minimum of three feet (3’) [1 meter] apart, as measured from near point to near point. Dual suction fittings shall be placed in such locations and distances to avoid “dual blockage” by a user.
Risk of Electric Shock.. All electrical wiring MUST be in conformance with applicable local codes, regulations, and the National Electric Code (NEC). Hazardous voltage can shock, burn, and cause death or serious property damage. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do NOT use an extension cord to connect unit to electric supply. Provide a properly located electrical receptacle. Before working on any electrical equipment, turn off power supply to the equipment.
MATERIALS NEEDED: PVC Glue Tape Measure Hack Saw Phillips Screwdriver Flathead Screwdriver PTFE Pipe Thread Sealant Tape Tongue and Groove Pliers Pipe Wrench Round File or Sand Paper 2 in. Threaded Connections (2 in. Slip Union & 1 1/2 in. Slip Union Included) On/Off Timer Shut Off Valve INTRODUCTION This manual contains information for the proper installation and operation of the Star Water System pool pump. The instructions in this manual MUST be followed precisely.
PUMP MOUNT MUST: • • • • • • Allow pump inlet height to be as close to water level as possible. Allow use of short, direct suction pipe (to reduce friction losses). Allow for gate valves in suction and discharge piping. Be protected from excess moisture and flooding. Allow adequate access for servicing pump and piping. Incorporate a straight portion of pipe prior to pump inlet no less than (5) pipe diameters in length. Hazardous Pressure.
Hazardous voltage. Can shock, burn, or cause death. BEFORE WORKING ON PUMP OR MOTOR: Unplug pump motor. ELECTRICAL All wiring must be done by a licensed electrician and must conform to all local and national codes and regulations. Ground and bond motor before connecting to electrical power supply. Failure to ground and bond pump motor can cause serious or fatal electrical shock hazard. Do NOT ground to a gas supply line.
VOLTAGE Voltage at motor MUST NOT be more than 10% above or below motor name plate rated voltage, or motor may overheat, causing overload tripping and reduced component life. If voltage is less than 90% or more than 110% of rated voltage when motor is running at full load, consult Power Company. GROUNDING AND BONDING • • • • Install, ground, bond, and wire motor in accordance with local or national electrical code requirements. Permanently ground motor.
NEVER OPERATE THE PUMP WITHOUT WATER. Water acts as a coolant and lubricant for the mechanical shaft seal. NEVER run pump dry. Running pump dry may damage seals, causing leakage, flooding, and voids warranty. Fill strainer housing with water before starting motor. Do NOT add chemicals to pool/spa system directly in front of pump suction. Adding undiluted chemicals may damage pump and voids warranty. Before removing strainer cover: 1. STOP PUMP before proceeding. 2. CLOSE VALVES in suction and outlet pipes.
STORING PUMP FOR WINTERIZATION To avoid dangerous or fatal electrical shock hazard, turn OFF power to motor before draining pump. Failure to disconnect power may result in serious personal injury or death. 1. Drain water level below all inlets to the pool. 2. Remove drain plugs from bottom of strainer body, and remove strainer cover from strainer housing. 3. Disconnect pump from mounting pad, wiring system (after power has been turned OFF), and piping system. 4.
Block off to determine if pump will develop a vacuum. You should have 5”-6” of vacuum at the strainer cover (Only your pool dealer can confirm this with a vacuum gauge). You may be able to check by removing the skimmer basket and holding your hand over the bottom port with skimmer full and pump running. If no suction is felt, check for line blockage. a. If pump develops a vacuum, check for blocked suction line or dirty strainer basket. An air leak in the suction piping may be the cause. b.
